Rack Requirements for EX2200 Switches

Table 32: Rack Requirements and Specifications for the Switch

Rack Requirement Guidelines
Rack type Use a two-post rack or a four-post rack. You can mount the switch on any two-post or four-post
rack that provides bracket holes or hole patterns spaced at 1 U (1.75 in./4.45 cm) increments and
that meets the size and strength requirements to support the weight.
A U is the standard rack unit defined in Cabinets, Racks, Panels, and Associated Equipment (document
number EIA-310–D) published by the Electronics Industry Association
(
The rack must meet the strength requirements to support the weight of the chassis.
Mounting bracket hole The holes in the mounting brackets are spaced at 1 U (1.75 in. or 4.45 cm), so that the switch can be
spacing mounted in any rack that provides holes spaced at that distance.

Ensure that the rack complies with the standard defined for 19-in. rack as defined in Cabinets,
Racks, Panels, and Associated Equipment (document number EIA-310–D) published by the
Electronics Industry Association (
.
Ensure that the rack rails are spaced widely enough to accommodate the switch chassis' external
dimensions . The outer edges of the front-mounting brackets extend the width of the chassis to
19 in. (48.2 cm).
The rack must be strong enough to support the weight of the switch.
Ensure that the spacing of rails and adjacent racks allows for the proper clearance around the
switch and rack.
Secure the rack to the building structure.
If earthquakes are a possibility in your geographical area, secure the rack to the floor.
Secure the rack to the ceiling brackets as well as wall or floor brackets for maximum stability.
